Presenting... Pellicano Popart Crispy! Review and... GIVEAWAY!

Since this funky bright wrap is going out to one of you lovely people, we haven't given it a HUUUUGE workout here, but I can say a few things about it.

It's light. A size 4 folded into my tote easily and when the demands of "UP!" became uproarious (see those tired toddler eyes?), we managed a nice FWCC TUB without much worry. At 250gsm, Popart Crispy is bang in the mid-weight of wraps.

The weave feels quite dense and smooth in hand, but wraps thin, very pliable and easy to tighten strand by strand. I was surprised at how well it did with 12kgs of toddler in front, since it feels like more of a 'baby' wrap.

Of course there was an ulterior motive for being up...
Popart is pretty rock-steady. Not a lot of bounce or grip. Quite easy for a novice wrapper to gather up and put in place, and the high-contrast design (stripes, but not the boring kind!) makes following a rail simple. I like the whimsy of this design and I'll be watching Pellicano with interest to see what else they come up with - their Zamira line is particularly eye-catching ;)

Now, who would like to score this size 4 for their very own? Don't be shy...

I only have a size 6 right now, but I'd LOVE a 4 to do hip carries without miles of tails and for RRR with a single candy cane chest belt (right now I use the extra tail to double it and it looks sooooooo awkward!).

I have one wrap, size 6, but just asked a lady online yesterday what back carry she was using and it was a half Jordan's back carry- achievable with a size 4 ;) This wrap is so fun to look at I imagine its even nicer in real life! Thank you Chelsea :) melita

Only have a 6 ATM as am still learning the carries but as it's a storch Leo its a looooong six! Far too much wrap to deal with! Would LOVE LOVE LOVE this wrap! If only I looked as fab as you! I'm still in the no sleep= NP effort stage of parenting :'( lol

I don't have size 4, because I only have a ringsling so far... Would looove to win this beautiful wrap for my nearly 18 mo little boy! We'll even have to learn how to wrap haha, but I would love to! :-D

At the moment our favourites with a four are kangaroo tub, and robins hip carry...also have been working on a ruck :-) sometimes, the best thing we do with a four is wrap ourselves on the couch with it esp with the poor mite teething and needing cuddles :-)

I am still learning how to wrap, but my favorite so far is the one I saw in a you tube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHdrlj6aBuo . It is a back carry. I have a wrap but it is just a little too short to do this. Maybe it's a 3. I end up having to tie with the fringe and have to have help to do that. Winning a sz 4 wrap would be great. Thanks!

I really want a wrap because my son loves to be held and I think it is very important for your child to feel safe. It would be nice to have one also so I can clean and do things while having him with me. And also while I am helping my daughters.
